Daily Jam - 君の愛に背を向けて

I have been exploring a ton of Japanese music over the last couple of months: film scores, jazz, psych, city pop, and on and on.  And i've gotta say i'm loving it, kind of similar to when i discovered all those Italian film score composers and library session musicians a decade or so back.  Anyhoo, here's a jazzy piece of music from composer Yuji Ohno taken from the film "Proof of the Wild," or "Never Give Up" as it's known in other regions.  Listen to the smooth and sultry "君の愛に背を向けて," translated as "Turning My Back on Your Love," below, our Daily Jam.

The International Disassociation

Back in 2023, Denver based artist Aaron Dooley released an album called "The International Disassociation of: Aaron Dooley."  The band he assembled to tour that album ended up enjoying their time together so much, that the whole group just became The International Disassociation, and they play a cool and heady mix of psych, prog, and jazz.  Check out latest single "Later Days" below and download it here.

Here's a little psychedelic jazz pop from Shades of Joy to get your morning started.  Here we have the group performing music from Alexandro Jodorowsky's "El Topo."  Wild stuff.  Check out "Slowest and Saddest Waltz" below, our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam - 河童のあやまり証文

It's Saturday, and at first i thought i would clean the house or so some sort of yardwork or something.  But instead i've decided to just be a lazy bum all day, laying around, drinking beer, and maybe catching a movie later.  While i do that, here's some pretty and wistful piano jazz from Japanese artists Harumi Takeuchi and Shunsuke Takeuchi.  Listen to excerpt from "河童のあやまり証文," which translates to "The Kappa's Written Apology" below, our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam - さよなら砂山

Here's a beautiful and lounge-tinged exotica track from Japanese composer Takeo Yamashita.  Because we live in a society of prudes, you'll have to verify your age to listen to our Daily Jam, "さよなら砂山," or "Goodbye, Sand Mountain" below.  But you definitely should.

Daily Jam - Ricochet

I have watched more soccer in the last three weeks than i have in my entire life before that.  And i just finished watching the USMNT look like total dogshit for 90+ minutes.  Trump really does turn everything he touches into shit, like some sort of turd-man Midas.  Anyhoo, after a sports debacle, i like to soothe myself with some music, like the gentle, jazzy, ambient, neo-classical sounds of French trio Human.  Listen to "Ricochet" from the group's sole 1985 long player, our Daily Jam.
